Beauty of the Canadian Rockies

By Meghan J. Ward

Book Overview

Paul Zizka's photography presents the iconic landscapes, parks and mountain environments of the Canadian Rockies in a highly visual regional collection.

Beauty of the Canadian Rockies brings together contemporary mountain photography by Paul Zizka with place-based captions by Meghan J. Ward. The book ranges through Banff, Canmore, Lake Louise, Jasper, Kananaskis, Waterton and Yoho, presenting familiar destinations alongside the light, weather and seasonal conditions that continually transform them.

Designed as an accessible photographic celebration of the region, the book emphasizes the scale and variety of the Rockies through mountain peaks, lakes, valleys and protected landscapes. Ward's captions provide geographic context while allowing Zizka's photographs to remain the centre of the experience. Together, the images and captions give readers a place-by-place view of the landscapes that define this mountain region.
